Environmental Performance

Scoring Our Suppliers' Environmental Performance

When our suppliers’ operations align with our environmental goals, standards and guiding principles, it helps us achieve our own sustainability goals while also reducing the environmental impact of the supply chains we depend on. The self-assessments we asked our top 100 Label and Graphic Materials suppliers to fill out through the EcoVadis platform also contain questions based on environmental, fair business practices, labor practices and supply chain criteria. Using EcoVadis helps us identify suppliers that go above and beyond to improve the supply chain; we work with those suppliers to develop new systems and products that can be adopted by our industry. At the same time, we work with suppliers whose scores have raised concerns so that we can help improve their operations and the environmental impact of the supply chain overall.
